Cullom Gallery is a Seattle art gallery, exhibiting online and in pop-up locations throughout the city. Founded in 2007, the Gallery historically occupied physical spaces in Pioneer Square and the International District; in 2013, Cullom Gallery left its brick and mortar past in favor of its current mobile model.

Through exhibits and flat file inventory, Cullom Galley focuses on historic and contemporary works on paper by artists from Japan, the U.S. and Europe.  The Gallery currently represents 14 contemporary artists from the U.S., Mexico, Germany and Japan, working in media of Japanese-style woodblock printing (moku hanga), drawing, and paper cutting. Cullom Gallery’s historic inventory includes traditional Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints and modern Japanese prints from the early 20^th century.

A schedule of the Gallery’s Mobile Showings is available on its Facebook Page: www.facebook.com/pages/Cullom-Gallery/63310364048 and at:  cullomgallery.com.

LxWxH – is a contemporary art gallery located in the Georgetown neighborhood of Seattle Washington. The focus of LxWxH is to represent innovative emerging artists through solo exhibitions and thoughtfully curated ideas. Exhibitions feature work spanning a wide range of media from highly conceptual installation, video, and process-based works to more traditional and sometimes representational painting and drawing.  Historically, Length Width Height has been a subscription project – a box of art – with two original pieces of work by two artists, and an essay or literary project by a featured writer.

This project was founded by Seattle artist and curator Sharon Arnold which came out of the idea that art should be sustainable and accessible. By collaborating with Seattle artists and writers, LxWxH provides an avenue to bring people together and collect art in an affordable and approachable way. The gallery space continues this tradition, featuring a varied collection of small and large works during its month-long shows, and will eventually open its doors for community events such as workshops, lectures, and readings. Compelled by the interest of creating more opportunities for artists in Seattle, Sharon Arnold and silent partner Kirsten Anderson are confident that LxWxH will not simply be a gallery, but a community space, thus continuing to break the mold of what a gallery can traditionally be.LxWxH is open each Saturday from 12-3, by appointment, every three months during its launch parties for the subscription project which will continue; and of course with its doors wide-open every second Saturday for Georgetown Art Attack – http://www.lengthbywidthbyheight.com

M.I.A. Gallery – Opened in Seattle (WA), in 2012, the mission of M.I.A Gallery is to expose North America to exceptional work, juxtaposing talented emerging artists with established contemporary artists from Africa, America, Europe and Middle-East.

Focusing on African Contemporary Art, the premiere opening show “Studio Bamako”, was presented with a wide collection of photographs from the world-renowned Malian artist, Malick Sidibé. M.I.A Gallery has become a powerful space of expression for the artistic and cultural revolution currently happening on the African continent. Institutions, curators, collectors and the general public alike are showing tremendous interest and support. M.I.A Gallery has also become an exciting platform for its artists, and created the first solo US exhibitions to Soly Cissé, Bruce Clarke, Delphine Diallo, Negar Farajiani, Sofie Knijff, Baudouin Mouanda.
